If watching a computer game being played sounds like a slightly odd way to spend an evening, be aware: Dear Esther is like no other computer game you’ve ever experienced.

Described by The Telegraph as “oil painting, poetry, eulogy and video game all at once”, Dear Esther immerses the viewer in a haunting otherworld in which meaning and narrative shift and change over the course of the event, accompanied by sumptuous visuals and a stunning original score. Catch this extraordinary performance at the Corn Exchange on 30 November, with tickets from £12.50.
